This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

To be honest, I do somewhat understand the point of view but not the US-centric view.
I do wonder why Italy is poorer on average on HDI and PPP than Finland despite Italy having been a "large civilization" back in the day. Rome was flourishing before Common Era while Finland went straight from the Bronze Age to the Middle ages.
Sure, both were Axis powers but this doesn't explain the difference. Finland paid heavy reparations to the USSR, suddenly developed industry and became "rich" in less than a century for putting money into tech (????)
